note: a medium-sized onion may be grated into the potatoes and the pancakes served with meat.
SALADS
Raw grated yellow turnips, carrots, or beets make a very good salad. For their dressing take oil, vinegar (or lemon), a little milk or cream and salt. To turnips and beets add a few grains of caraway seeds.
Any kind of raw vegetable, or chopped fruit can be put in a suitable flavor of Jello. Marshmellow (chopped) is good mixed with fruit or celery.
MAYONNAISE
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ t salt
- ⅔ C salad oil
- 2 T vinegar
- 1 t Worcestershire sauce
Put egg yolk into a small chilled bowl or saucer. Stir in salt. Add oil, a few drops at a time, stirring vigorously after each addition. After a few additions more oil may be added. When the mixture thickens add the vinegar alternately with the oil. Add the Worcestershire sauce last. If the mixture should separate add another egg yolk a little at a time.
note: mayonnaise is easy to make if the oil & vinegar are well chilled.
